We loved this hotel. Central location with an amazing view from the terrace. The best thing about the hotel is how friendly and welcoming the staff are. Nothing seems too much for them. Everyone was wonderful, special thanks to Ömer and Yasin! Fenerbahce forever! :-D

This is a great small hotel in the center of the old town. Everything is within a walking distance. View from the roof terrace is 5 stars. Rooms are spacious and comfortable with amazing views especially from the 4th floor location. We had a free upgrade from 3rd to 4th floor and a knife with plates when we asked for something to cut the watermelon that we bought on the way from airport to hotel. However, hotel needs some upgrades and fixing. Specifically: - Room's furniture needs renewal. - Safety box had broken lock. - Lift in the hotel is the slowest lift ever. People working in the hotel are absolutely amazing. Front desk person Emre is speaking English very well. He gave us a city map and suggested very nice restaurants close by with great food and great prices. Omer was helping us with luggage and also told us about the city. Yasin was helping with any technical issues in room, he brought a working safety box when we complained about the broken one. I would give a hotel staff a 5-star rating.

The place was spotless and the young man at the desk was incredibly helpful. He went out of his way to help us. I was thoroughly impresses by him. The location was great. Easy sightseeing from here. Breakfast was different but mostly typical to the area. The only problem I had was there was not a shuttle that I thought was provided. Other than that it was great!

The staff was excellent & very helpful. The view from the rooftop deck was perfection!! Breakfasts were very good. It is a very short walk to the most important major places to see (Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, Basilica Cistern, Grand Bazaar, Egyptian/Spice Bazaar, several museums, etc). Easily walkable to restaurants & shops. Staff helped us take the train which was nearby. We also walked down & were able to hop on a boat to take a 1.5 hr tour on the Bosphorus.

Great location. Front desk staff very friendly and helpful. Breakfast staff could be more attentive and offer to prepare eggs, etc. instead of guests having to call them out of the back room to order. Tables should be cleaned as guests finish. When we arrived for breakfast at 9 a.m. most tables were covered with dirty dishes.
